Abstract

The most innovative and primary contributor to the growth of the coal industry is the workforce of coal miners. The safety of coal mine production, which has a direct impact on the growth of the national economy, is contingent on the workers' mental and physical health. However, studies have shown that coal miners' physical and mental health is in poor shape. Their health is not only affected by traditional occupational hazards like dust, gas, and physics, but also by new occupational hazards like ergonomics and psychosocial factors that are getting worse. Mental and musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) are common among coal miners, according to studies, and they pose a serious threat to their mental and physical health.
